good comments from Bills players in this new Athletic piece
MrEpsYtown replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
So it’s coaching -
Cooper DeJean - Would he have made a difference?
MrEpsYtown replied to ShakAttack's topic in The Stadium Wall
He's a blue-chipper. Somehow the Eagles continue to grab guys like him, Mitchell, and Jalen Carter. It's insane how well they do in the draft. -
Vrabel, McDaniels, Marronne...a bunch of douchebags who will get more out of their players than the nice guy coach we have.
-
Nail on the head. And to me, at some point, the players lose faith in their coach. And if they aren't there yet, it's a miracle.
-
I would not have a problem with that change.

A little I'm hurt, but NOT YEY SLAIN.
MrEpsYtown replied to We'reWalking's topic in The Stadium Wall
Sir Andrew needs to learn to strike first with no mercy and stop being a wounded loser who has to drag himself up. Yeah, fortitude is cool, but winning is better. -
Overall, McDermott is responsible for everything that happens on the field. He has created this risk-averse, scared-to-make-mistakes culture that reacts rather than dictates. He has every right to tell his OC what he wants. McDermott okays everything that happens on that field. Brady and Allen aren't just doing their own thing. It's more than just what happens on the field that very day. The team was outcoached and outclassed again. The team looked jittery, nervous and unprepared. That is all on my McDermott. To me, who replaces him isn't the issue. The issue is that he sucks and he will never win a Super Bowl. So turn the page and find someone else and see what happens. The fact that Bills fans are afraid to replace this milquetoast loser because we sucked for 17 years is crazy to me. He's no good. He isn't the one. Move on. This is coaching purgatory. We need a new voice and a new approach.
-
It's been determined that McDerrmott cannot do it. So why hold on to that? Move on. A new voice and fresh ideas could go a long way. There is unknown in looking for a replacement. That is a chance you have to take. There is one fact that isn't debatable, McDermott can not beat the Chiefs in the playoffs.

I laugh at the Bills fans that say they are done
MrEpsYtown replied to Pete's topic in The Stadium Wall
I love em. I always have and always will. They will not win a Super Bowl with this coach. I will still watch and have hope and get excited about free agency and the draft. It's part of who I am . I will never move on. But they will never win a super bowl with this coach. You can be supportive and realistic at the same time. -
I think he is a figurehead. This is McDermott's D, it always has been. There is no creativity or aggression in it. It is passive Dick Jauron redux. How he and Steve Spanoulo both come from the school of Jim Johnson is crazy to me.
-
Gotta bring his DC with him. Otherwise, he will just be another guy neutered in a passive scheme.

MrEpsYtown replied to We'reWalking's topic in The Stadium Wall
For once I would like to be the bully who kicks people's butts and dictates on and off the field. I don't want to be the lovable losers who rise out of disappointment to have some marginal success. We need Josh to be a killer. We need aggression that just will never come with this regime. We need aggressive coaches who dictate rather than react. -
There is only one move that can make it end. And sadly, it won't happen. Rinse and repeat.
-
We need new ideas on both sides of the ball.
MrEpsYtown replied to Yobogoya!'s topic in The Stadium Wall
McDermott is the problem. He will never bring in an outsider with fresh ideas. We've been down this imaginary road when we all wanted Rex Ryan to keep Jim Schwartz. Zero chance it will ever happen. -
If players are not prepared to play, if the game seems too big for them, if they don't have viable replacements when injuries happen, that's on the staff. The bottom line is that the moment was too big for these guys. I blame the coach. The Chiefs played a guard at left tackle. And they were fine. It's all about coaching. All day every day. If McDermott did not have Josh, he wouldn't even be a .500 coach. To me, if anyone believes anything more than that they are delusional. He is not it, and he will never be it. It's about preparation and execution.

Why moving on from McDermott is tough due to logistics
MrEpsYtown replied to iccrewman112's topic in The Stadium Wall
To me the logistics are that he will never win a championship here. This is the best he can do. So what is the point of doing another year with him? 1- There are still guys out there, and aside from Vrabel, none of the other hires are particularly interesting imo. 2- Brady should be guaranteed nothing. A team will never make a new head coach keep an assistant. 3- BB is the real answer or maybe Gruden. But something I would do is like HC Kingsbury, OC Davis Webb, DC Patrick Graham, Special Teams Darren Rizzi. Graham’s Raiders defenses certainly give Mahomes issues and Kingsbury is an offensive mind who could unlock more in Josh imo. 4- I like Brady but this thing needs to get blown up imo. -
Just some thoughts before I log off for a while...
MrEpsYtown replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall
This right here is why you move on from McDermott. It is the only move you can make to possibly change the outcome. This thing is going nowhere and a change is needed. Let someone else try with this generational QB. People are so worried about who we replace the guy with. That doesn’t even matter at this point. If you bring McDermott back, you are guaranteed zero shot at a Super Bowl unless Mahomes tears up his knee and Reid has health problems and steps down and Lamar gets hurt. McDermott cannot do it. It’s never going to happen with him at the helm. -
I like the guy. But it won’t make a difference.
-
Watch Josh’s press conference. This is terrible and devastating. That is a man right there who has lost belief. The ultimate irony of the years and years of QB purgatory is we are now in coaching purgatory. We were always just good enough to lose out on picking high in the draft. Now we have Josh and we have a dude who gets out coached constantly but wins a ton of games because of Josh and that makes it impossible to fire the guy. To me, this loss is devastating and this is the Bills apex. I have voiced my opinion that this was a game they had to win because if they didn’t, the players start to question if they ever can. Doubt is toxic. Once you get to that dark place, I am not sure how you climb out. I do not think that this regime gets them any further and I fear a big hangover coming for them. McDermott should go, but he won’t.

I could see him being the Jets OC.
-
I mean they will have to do their best. No one really takes Kelce away. If they want to try to play man on him, I like Bishop better than Hamlin or Rapp. I can say I am not worried about Hopkins. He is a shell of his former self. If they double Kelce I worry about the speed guys getting over the top of the defense. You also have to spy Mahomes. So it's a very tough challenge, but it always is.
-
Yeah I mean I don't break down all 22 or anything but he has been excellent in the run game going back to that Lions game and he hasn't gotten beat deep. He has not been the liability he was early in the season.
-
I like Bishop in this game. He can certainly run with Kelce and has the size to try to take him away. Bishop's play has improved quite a bit imo.

Hamlin comeback player nomination
MrEpsYtown replied to Riverboat Ritchie's topic in The Stadium Wall
They need to give the comeback award to Kim Kardashian.
